is it okay to wear indoor soccer shoes for a 3 mile run?

hello. my running shoes are completely ruined (long story, mud+rain and stuff) and until i get new ones i only have a pair of indoor soccer shoes i can wear for sneakers (old running shoes don't fit). they are just your classic pair of indoor soccer shoes, the black and white adidas ones: http://dsp.imageg.net/graphics/product_images/p120978p275w.jpg

my question is... can i go on a long run on these without getting shin splints or other injuries?

If you don't make a habit of it, yes. Those shoes are meant for grass, so if you could find a place to run on grass, that would be better for your feet. Running on grass is good for your feet anyway...builds strength because of the give of the grass.

Shin splints usually happen over time, because of the constant pounding of many many miles. You'd be fine for a 3 miler.
